Just living up to their alternate name of "tree crab." My guys love to climb along the hinge of the glass lid but rarely make it all the way across -- there's usually a loud "thunk" when one of them slips and hits the substrate...sometimes it's a "splash" if the slip occurs over the pools :lol: .
PPs are Big Enzo, Charles Paris and Mr Pinch

Also Mom to Imogene the Syrian Hamster
